Baptism Day
Baptism Day
1. I like my birthdays ev’ry one.
Each brings a greater joy to me.
But I can’t wait until I’m eight,
For then I’ll be baptized you see.
2. To be baptized as Jesus was
By one who holds the priesthood true,
And this obey God’s holy laws
Is just the thing I want to do.
3. When hands are laid upon my head,
Then I’ll receive the Holy Ghost.
Because I’ll do as Jesus said,
I’ll have the blessing I want most.
